@mediamogul This is great! May try a Lego build myself over Christmas, I'm sure there'll be plenty of it under the tree;) I've even had to have a look at ET, boy is that something else! Going to show my boy just to show him how good his scratch projects are in comparison;) Now to find Cheetahmen... there's something quite amusing about finding the worst games. Could be an alternative rom of the week thread!!

The game's creator (Howard Scott Warshaw) has a great sense of humor about the whole thing. Having also created 'Yar's Revenge', which is known to be one of the best games on the 2600, he often jokes about having the widest range of any game developer out there.
The best synopsis of the whole E.T. phenomenon has to be this segment from 'The Video Game Years'.

@mediamogul In the end ET carts where found. Atari did actually bury these in New Mexico desert ! Crazy story.
Merry Xmas to everybody.

Crazy story.
So crazy, you'd have to make it up if it weren't true. Alongside the documentary from Xbox Entertainment Studios, James Rolfe also made a highly fictionalized feature film based on a race to uncover the extraterrestrial truth behind the burial in ''Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie". He even gives his long-awaited review of the game during the end credits. It's unbelievably impressive for an independent Sci-Fi film.

fun video focused on the cheetahmen

@mediamogul i am probably going to mostly use the instructions to make a lego nes (not for the pi or anything else) with a controller and cartridge.

That is a great video. I love 'The Game Chasers'. It's like 'American Pickers' for retro games.
That sounds great. Be sure to look at the black climbing rope pieces. They'd make perfect controller cords. If you do end up building it, I'd love to see some pics.
-
@mediamogul definitely. Thanks for the cord tip. I was trying to think of how i was going to do it.
-
I ordered the pieces for the Lego Case from Lego today. Looking forward to see how it turns out.
-
Fantastic! I'd love to see pics of it in use if you happen to get a chance.
-
@mediamogul definitely. The 100+ pieces should be here in a couple weeks. I'll either build it or pawn it off to my nephew as a cheap excuse for him to do something "for fun" that's actually for me.
-
Got the lego parts today. Build it asap looks great, but I think I will reinforce it with some superglue.pics will follow.

A builder's best friend. I look forward to seeing the pics.
-
Her are some pictures of the case.
-
@bense2k cool!
-
Very cool indeed.
My set got lost in transit, so Lego is express shipping me another. I'm glad to see that it builds and holds the Pi so nicely.
-
I ordered mine on the 28th and my order still has status of "In Warehouse".
-
I don't know what their deal is. I've talked with some people who got their order within three days and others who had to wait three weeks. You'd think this sort of distribution problem wouldn't exist at a company the size of LEGO.
